COMMENTS

"I am agnostic on whether to let this world include examples such as EX8932, where pixelation is used, or examples such as suggested by EX8928 similar to the "Topologist's Comb" (link in references) which are not locally path-connected. These two examples were provided by Aaron David Fairbanks." - Jago Collins 28th January 2021

EXAMPLE

A circle with a circle cut out of it does not fit left, because with the circle cut out of it, our shape is no longer a circle.

BP1145 Polygon that can be achieved by folding a square once vs. other polygons.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Although it is tempting at first to make a version of this Bongard Problem with the solution "Shape can be achieved by folding a square a finite amount of times vs. other shapes", this alternate Bongard Problem would just amount to having the solution "Convex shape with straight edges vs. concave shape or convex shape with at least one curved edge."

Left-sorted examples are sometimes called self-descriptive sequences.

See BP1147 for a similar idea.

BP1149 was inspired by this.

BP1206 Vertical axis of symmetry vs. no vertical axis of symmetry.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

This was created to be a slightly different version of BP50, "vertical axis of symmetry vs. no axis of symmetry". The solution for this Bongard Problem is also a (less specific) solution for BP50.

CROSSREFS

BP1207 is the same solution but using the horizontal axis instead of the vertical axis.

BP1215 is the same solution but with the NW/SE diagonal instead of the vertical axis.
